Your toenail fungal infection just won’t go away no matter what over-the-counter treatment or remedy you use. What is causing your toenail fungal infection to persist? It can be challenging for you to treat a fungal infection on your own. All-In-One Foot Care Center can help. When at-home treatment isn’t working, it’s time to ask us about laser toenail fungus removal.
Using Laser Removal Therapy To Treat Toenail Fungus
There are several treatments available for toenail fungus, but most of them aren’t effective enough. Additionally, some people experience side effects from oral antifungal medication, or they cannot take it because of other medications or certain health conditions. A fast, painless and effective way to eliminate toenail fungus is available through laser therapy for patients of all ages.
Laser Treatment For Toenails: Benefits And Risks
Among the many benefits of laser treatment for toenail fungus, our podiatrist recommends it to our patients as a top treatment option:
- It takes about 30 minutes for the treatment to be effective and fast
- Toenail fungus can be treated by using this FDA-approved product
- Side effects and complications are not present
- In the absence of a recovery period (you can go back to your routine right away), you can start your regular routine again.
- There is no anesthesia or incision required for the treatment and it is painless.
- A single session is usually enough to cure most fungal infections
- If you have a persistent or severe fungal infection, it can be an excellent option
Our podiatrists can treat most cases of toenail fungus with this cutting-edge laser system in just a single session, instead of taking certain medications every day for weeks. Taking the necessary precautions to reduce your risk of future fungal infections is essential since there is a chance that the nail may re-infect after treatment. These precautions include:
- Drying your feet thoroughly after washing them every day
- In the event that socks or shoes become wet, remove them as soon as possible
- Wear a different pair of shoes every day
- Socks made of synthetic materials that wick away moisture from the feet
- Affected nails should not be polished, as doing so can lead to infection
- If your feet sweat a lot, you may wish to use talcum powder in your socks or shoes
- Using public pools, gym showers, and locker rooms without sandals or protective shoes
